You have my undying respect. I cannot emphasize enough just how little that matters, but you have it.

Heh, I just wish it were a little cheaper. The VR headsets that is, not your respect.

Seriously though, we're really looking forward to getting them all and trying them at home (rather than just for a few minutes at the various press events/conventions).

OMG I have to wait at least 1 1/2 months before I can plop down the money for the comp upgrades and Occulus Rift.

This is getting so exciting!

Sony's VR event is tomorrow (March 15) at 3pm mountain time. Should be interesting to see what they plan on selling this thing for. My bet is $399US with nothing, $499 with a camera/move controller (which will be required but some already have).

October sucks, but I'm pretty happy with the price point compared to the other options. I'm also selfishly impressed that I kinda guessed correctly on the price.

Shortest event ever? Quick and to the point. How much do you want to bet the battlefront thing is not at all what people are expecting/wanting?

Nice -- only thing I'm wondering is what that $400 gets me. Is it just the headset, or is it the headset, plus camera, plus move controllers...?

In any case, a decent time frame to get that amount of money saved up. Preorders gonna go up soon?

It'll be $550 CDN. Not much more than the current going rate. God I hope the dollar improves a bit.

From what I have read, PS Camera is separate purchase. Bundled out to a) make PSVR cheaper, b) not penalize anyone who adopted the camera early.

I would expect retailers to offer/suggest bundles in their store, to push the extra components such as Camera (required) and Move controllers (optional, may be required for some games)
